I’ve dropped the ball slightly on this one, so apologies for the late notice, but Radius play tonight at the Wigmore Hall. Their programme celebrates the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary of the first publication of “On The Origin Of
Species” by taking up the theme of “chance” in music. The group will play pieces by Messiaen, Boulez, Cage and new works by
Paul Newland and Tim Benjamin.
Full Programme
Boulez: Domaines
Cage: Telephones And Birds (Not Birds But Messiaen)
Paul Newland: Monotonous Forest
Messiaen: L’Alouette Lulu and L’Alouette Calandrelle from Catalogue D’Oiseaux
Cage: Radio Music
Tim Benjamin: A Dream Of England
